Navajo Indians Aroused.


 There is trouble with the Navaios, brought about by horse thieves, and un- less the people and the civil authorities turn out and hunt down the thieves, in nocent persons are most surely to be worsted, sooner or later. On Sunday last party of Navajo Indians, who were in search of a band of seventy-fve horses that had been stolen from them, passed through town and continued on towards Phoenix Park, the trail of the animals having gone in that direction. When they arrived at Gladden's ranch, near Milford, they came upon a man named Blivens and opened fire on him, shooting him through the leg It seems that one of the Indians recognized him as a broth CT of man named Cooper, who, about a year ago, killed an Indian near Navajo Springs, which was the reason of their attempt to murder him. Blivens wound is said to be dangerous but not necessa- rily fatal The Indians, up to latest ac- counts, had not found their horses, or the men who drove them Holbrook Critic.

Rev. Robert Collyer, of New York, thus speaks of Henry Ward Beecher:
 ''Since the death of Luther, $40 years ago, the death of no man in sacred office has so touched the hearts of the nations Though he was "A years of age, no one looked upon him as old. He was the great leader of the American pulpit, and no one in thls age, save the grand old man in England, had so much enthusi- asm, courage and ability for the work he had to do.
 His theology was broad as the world itself. It was not theology bound with an iron hand, such as they would bind on at Princeton and Andover. That is all well enough for those who love such bondage. 4 x
 Because Beecher was not bound with bonds made by man, and because of his noble work for humanity all these years, I thank God that he was not a systema- tic tbeologian; but just the great, free reasoner we knew him to be.
 He needed the whole republic, first, for his growth; and then the whole plan ct for his ripening. He was not of flow 4r-not growth. He was a giant in the preat woods. As well might they seek to eonGne Niagara ill Acwer-pot # #

 In less than twenty years the United States have reduced their debt by about G22O,0OO,OO0. They ended their fiscal year. 1886, with a surplus of about E18,00O,000.

Extinction or Buffalo in Texas.

An Abelene, Texas, correspondent of the Glcbs-Democrat says; A wag- on was in town few days ago, from which the proprietor was retailing fresh buffalo meat It is probably the last wagon with such goods that will ever be seen on the street of Abilene. There have been a few lonesome buff faloes for some years past in the unfre- ouented wilds of Crockett County From these wilds they never emerged, seeming to understand that they were hemmed Tn on all sides by a merci- less cordon of fire. Therefore thelr migratory instinct was forgotten, or at least they never attempted to fol- low it.
 It seemed to be common consent of all who occasionally visited the region to respect these last remnants of a greatrace, and never to harm them. Even the widest cowboy yielded to this good feeling. But change has come. The drouth and the hard ne cessities that have come by it have driven all sentiment out of the bosoms of some Of the people. They went for the poor loYssome buffaloeS as means of earning a little money, and the wagon mentioned above was one of the results. Doubtless there were other wagons in the same business about the same time on the streets of San Angelo and Ballinger. It is not known whether all the buffalo were killed, but 1t is most likely that not one escaped. Thus ends the last of that great race in Texas, except about q dozen head domestIcated by Charles Goodnight on his Palodura ranch, in the Panhandle, and probably two or three domesticated by Hon. John Hancock on his farm near Ausein.

The demand for Texas cattle in the North and West (according to a Dal- las, Tex, correspondent of the Globe Democrat will be nothing like as large thIs season as it was in 1886 At this time last year there were 100000 head of Texas cattle contracted fer, to be delivered at various points up the tral whereas, careful estimates of the number thus far purchased for deliv- cry this year, are not above 50,0O0 The falling of in the demand is attrl- buted to the decline in the price of beef cattle and consequent losses of Northern cattlemen who in past sea- sons were heavy purchasers of young Texas stock which they expected to fatten on the succulent grasses of Mon tana and Wyoming and subsequently, sell at a profit in eastern markets.
 The present condition of the cattle industry in Texas Is calculated to i'm press stockmen more than ever with the importancenf feedpans and refrl- geratlng establishments; at least with the necessity of some new way of dis posing of their beeves if they want to continue in the cattle business.
